The old-style pills! Who does not know
What agony they causod-what woe?
You walked the floor, you groaned, you sighet
And ielt such awful pain inside,
Aud the neat day you felt 10 weak
You didn't want TO move or speak.
Now llerce's Pellets" arc so mild
They arc not dreaded by a child.
They do their work in painless way,
And leave no weakness Tor next day.
Thus proving what is DIT contest
That gentle means are always best.

Hillsdale, Kan, fully indOrses the statements
of Comrade Shaw, Co. G, 10th ILL.,. in regard to

in the battle of Lookout Mountain. He de-
scribes the action as he saw il, and says it was
universally admitted at the time that the flag

point of the mountain. He hopes the 59th will
have a Reunion ut st. Louis during the Ma
tional Encampment.
VIM. McAdams, Second Lieutenant, Co. III,
59th ILL.,, says that his regiment belonged to
Crosses (Third) Brigade, OF the First Division,
Fourth Corps. The brigade was not the

pushed up the mountain they could hear the
shouts and musketry of those in advance, and
met many squads of prisoners which Hooker's
men were sending to the rear. He describes
the fighting on the mountain. and says that the
first flag they saw floating on the peak was that
of the Sth Ky. on the following morning. tie
